Please consider this as a formula for success for your writing as well! To write with these principles in the background, the foreground and in the very ground your writing emerges from. How could it not provoke a reader to speak up, reach out, make contact, and engage you if so compelled?

I love this, Deborah. Although I think that if someone is going to trip up, it will be a step three. WE were discussing the over at the Men with Pens blog the other day. One of the questions the blogger raised was: Bloggers, writers, those labeled as “thought leaders,” need to be sure they are walking the talk, acting on those thoughts and ideas they are recommending to others.

That, I think, is the hardest part and where most of us are challenged, at least from what I see in the online world. And where your “authentic writing” becomes so important.

I love the sequence. Not surprised it comes from Gandhi. Thanks for making me think. Again.
